My Purpose - To invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored Gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and his Atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the Gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end! (Preach My Gospel, Page 1)

Meet the Mormon's Article in Sao Pedro Newspaper



Here is the translation- Cory's Big Brother Aaron served in Brazil so was able to translate for us,  Cory is on the right in the picture, it is hard to tell.

"Meet “the Mormons”
“Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in name of the Father and the Son and of the Holy Ghost,” said Jesus Christ to his followers at the end of the book of Matthew chapter 28 in the Holy Bible. As representatives of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (the nickname of the Church is “the Mormons”) we do with power and authority what Jesus commanded; or rather, we teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and we help people come unto Him through baptism.
We declare that Jesus Christ is our Savior and that He lives and guides His Church through a living Prophet. The first prophet in our days was Joseph Smith. He was called to be Prophet in the year 1820 when he prayed and God, the Eternal Father and Jesus Christ appeared to him. The Prophet today is President Thomas S. Monson.
With joy in our hearts we are called by the Prophet of God to be here in Sao Pedro do Sul and teach about Jesus Christ to the people here. But, we always ask that people ask God if what we say is true; for if you “ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ… with a sincere heart and real intent, having faith in Christ, He will manifest the truth [of all things] by the power of the Holy Ghost” (The Book of Mormon, Moroni 10:4, page 618).
